Sizes differ between shops, so the sticker price is not comparable and a millilitre is. The cheapest millilitre on this record is not the bottle the evidence points at, and the page says both.

No samples published by these merchants — some keep those quiet.

What the shops themselves say

Dupedex records the inspiration statement a merchant publishes on its own product page. It is the merchant's assertion, not ours, and it is never a measurement of how close anything smells.

Published note words, read from Parfums de Marly’s own page. Colour marks the family a word belongs to — it is never a rating, and nothing on this page says how anything smells.

How this page decides

We count independent reviewers who published a dated review, quote them verbatim with a link to the moment they said it, and never score how anything smells. A conclusion needs at least two independent sources; one source is reported as one source. Reviews that were sponsored or gifted are labelled and are not counted. Evidence set v1.0.0, built Aug 24, 2026 — 61 sources and 130 recorded observations across 10 fragrances. How we verify.

Commissions never change our evidence conclusions, product verdicts, or whether a viable option is shown. Commercial terms may affect which integrations we build first and may break ties between materially equivalent purchase links.
